Salmos 64

1 Para el músico principal. Un salmo de David. Escucha mi voz, Dios, en mi queja. Preserva mi vida del miedo al enemigo.

For the end, a Psalm of David. Hear my prayer, O God, when I make my petition to thee; deliver my soul from fear of the enemy.

2 Escóndeme de la conspiración de los malvados, de la ruidosa multitud de los que hacen el mal;

Thou hast sheltered me from the conspiracy of them that do wickedly; from the multitude of them that work iniquity;

3 que afilan su lengua como una espada, y apuntan sus flechas, palabras mortales,

who have sharpened their tongues as a sword; they have bent their bow maliciously;

4 para disparar a hombres inocentes desde emboscadas. Le disparan de repente y sin miedo.

to shoot in secret at the blameless; they will shoot him suddenly, and will not fear.

5 Se alientan a sí mismos en planes malvados. Hablan de poner trampas en secreto. Dicen: “¿Quién los verá?”

They have set up for themselves an evil matter, they have given counsel to hide snares; they have said, Who shall see them?

6 Conspiran la injusticia, diciendo: “¡Hemos hecho un plan perfecto!” Seguramente la mente y el corazón del hombre son astutos.

They have searched out iniquity; they have wearied themselves with searching diligently, a man shall approach and the heart is deep,

7 Pero Dios les disparará. Serán abatidos repentinamente con una flecha.

and God shall be exalted, their wounds were [caused by] the weapon of the foolish children,

8 Sus propias lenguas los arruinarán. Todos los que los vean sacudirán la cabeza.

and their tongues have set him at nought, all that saw them were troubled;

9 Toda la humanidad tendrá miedo. Declararán la obra de Dios, y reflexionará sabiamente sobre lo que ha hecho.

and every man was alarmed, and they related the works of God, and understood his deeds.

10 Los justos se alegrarán en Yahvé, y se refugiarán en él. Todos los rectos de corazón lo alabarán.

The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord, and hope on him, and all the upright in heart shall be praised.
